Boswell Pet Rescue Seek Donations To Rehabilitate Hoarded Dogs

The Boswell Pet Rescue in Choctaw County is asking for donations to rehabilitate 50 small dogs abused by animal hoarding.

Rescue organizers said the funds will be used for resources to help the dogs, who have horrible skin conditions and desperately need medical attention. Upon a search of the property, authorities found several wire crates full of small dogs stacked on top of each other, some three at a time. Officials said several dogs were deceased on the property or living in deplorable conditions

The Choctaw County Sheriff's office seized the animals this week and said they plan to file animal cruelty and neglect charges against the owner.
